This article is about the europarty established in 1992. For the Socialists & Democrats Group in the European Parliament, see Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats.
The Party of European Socialists (PES) is a social democratic[5][6] and progressive[7] European political party.[8]
The PES comprises national-level political parties from all the European economic area states (EEA) plus the United Kingdom. This includes major parties such as the Social Democratic Party of Germany, the French Socialist Party, the British Labour Party, the Italian Democratic Party, the Portuguese Socialist Party, the Romanian Social Democrat Party and the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party. Parties from a number of other European countries and from the Mediterranean region are also admitted to the PES as associate or observer parties.[9] Most member, associate, and observer parties are members of the wider Progressive Alliance or Socialist International.[3][4]
The PES is currently led by its president, Stefan Löfven, a former Prime Minister of Sweden. Its political group in the European Parliament is the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D). The PES also operates in the European Committee of the Regions (in the PES Group in the Committee of the Regions) and the European Council.
